Orla, Texas, Early Saturday Afternoon

[weldedtomyspine]

Dinah and Jaime had gotten up early, and Dinah had helped walk Jaime through an actual plan for investigation. Which was much better than his "plan" of going back out to Orla and "trying to find something helpful".

So they were back out in the desert, driving old, mostly abandoned roads. Jaime didn't have much to say, and Dinah seemed willing to let him think. So the silence drew out between them until they finally arrived. "There's Mrs. Wilson's car," Jaime said as he pulled in behind it and stopped the car. "I found her phone a couple of dozen feet away, just lying on the ground."

"Seriously?" Blue Beetle exclaimed again in surprise, ducking slightly and swinging one arm up to catch at the foot aimed at his head.

He was going to regret not starting with the magic user, wasn't he?

"Seriously," Tynan replied, throwing his weight forward so that he could try to overpower the human, at the same time he added some water to the soil below the feet of his opponent.

That was just enough for Jaime to lose his balance, and his grip, stumbling slightly as he tried to get out of the sudden puddle of mud at his feet.

Right. IF he was going to keep messing around with his form-- better ot mess with the environment, than the actual defender.

Dinah threw a blast of TK at the ground under the Fae's feet, opening up a crack several feet long and several inches wide.

Tynan fell, cursing in a language probably none of them recognized. He hadn't expected them to be able to affect the ground so he had to take a moment to gather himself.
